Poll Stats, "What If", Fun Facts, and Trivia

Many thanks to Mediajock for all his hard work putting this very interesting information
together!

Folks,

Well, what can one say - with over 2/3 of this year's finishers in the poll
being "new" artists", one can conclude that the AFTI guard has definitely
changed. Normally our Top 10 is comprised of stars on tentpole US TV series and
boxoffice smashes. But with a seeming shortage of that, our voters are looking
to the globe in search of true young talent.

This year's race was also very "loosely contested" - with no single or select
group of TI's or their projects generating the level of buzz that past winners
are accustomed to, this is the one year where the phrase "it's anyone's game"
has never held more true. The Top 10 had the fewest percentage of toral point
distribution this year since that stat has been kept for the poll (only 1/4 of
total points awarded went to the top 10 - usually it's between 1/3 and 1/2), and
the "next" 10 is not far off at all pointwise - yes, our Top 10 was ever
changing.

And, once again, this year more and more of our Top 10 had fewer and fewer 1st
place votes, proving thet you don't always have to be like the best to finish
bog but just capture the hearts of many if albeit for a moment.

With such a new establishment in the Media Boy world, it lets us marvel about what this new year may bring!

There were 100 votes cast for any of the 962 submitted nominees
during the 11 days the poll was open. From these:

1448 points awarded.

vote.

winners.
